Very nice tour in great surroundings. Today I drove to Dietfurt. Shortly before that I came across a small cable ferry, where you had to lend a hand to reach the other bank. I found that totally amusing. Great that something like this still exists 😃

Nice tour. Maybe a little too often 🙈 schnitzel, cola wheat, schnapps and headwind are not a good combination 😅🙂

On the second day of our stay in the Altmühltal, we headed from the location near Beilngries in the direction of Kehlheim. Since we also wanted to enjoy a boat trip, we had to turn back in Essing shortly before Kehlheim to get the ship to Riedenburg. All in all a successful combo :-)
